Valid point...

I was mainly looking at it from a warranty perspective. Making sure that he gets his money's worth and full coverage like he should.

well, i got a response this morning:

"You will not void the warranty or Applecare installing the bluetooth card."

Let's just say I'm saving that email.

Definitely save the e-mail. But, they dodged the issue a bit.

To me, the real question is whether the bluetooth card is covered by your warranty.

Installing said card shouldn't void your warranty any more than adding memory. But, the question should be whether the bluetooth / airport card you added will be covered if it should fail.

Typically, it would be covered by the AppleCare or 1 year warranty (if you didn't purchase AppleCare). But, since you added it, and it was not part of the original system, then Apple will likely tell you that you are out of luck if that part happens to fail.

See if you can get an answer on that one. That would be the real question to me.

Of course, it's also up to you as to how much you care. But, I would want to know that everything I paid for is covered by the full warranty. If it's not, then they should warranty it since they are the ones who sold it to you separately when you ordered a computer that had it built-in.
